First things first: trying to attack a referee is poor form for any number of reasons. You’re not going to accomplish a damn thing other than getting yourself in a metric assload of trouble. Punching somebody isn’t worth it.

It’s just one day before the trading deadline, and your team, the Cincinnati Reds, are trying to trade you. So if you’re pitcher Bronson Arroyo, you do the logical thing: Tell a major newspaper that you were using both androstenedione and amphetamines in 2003. That should grease the wheels.

With the news that his then-Red Sox […]

Ever notice that television companies really have no idea how to incorporate other, newer technology into their broadcasts? We don’t either, for what it’s worth, but TV shows go ahead and incorporate anyway, leading to such disasters as CNN anchors reading Tweets live on air. Why? Nobody knows why, but they “want to hear from […]

This mustache belongs to the most hated man in Atlanta, MLB umpire Bill Hohn:

More photos have surfaced of Matthew Stafford’s recent party activities as he passed the time waiting for Lions training camp. Awesome. Never have such naughty boat shenanigans come to light since a certain Vikings Lake Minnetonka cruise; or of course Gary Hart’s 1984 Presidential campaign.

Last week we brought you the horror of Stafford’s crooked-hat, Dancin’ […]

Recall, if you will, the shame with which Jose Rijo resigned his post with the Washington Nationals just months ago. His Dominican Republic baseball academy collapsed amid allegations of skimming money from prospects’ contracts and a $1.4 million contract given to a player with a forged identity. Three word, summary: It. was. bad.

(”And the funny […]

A Dallas Cowboys fan who fired five rounds from a shotgun into a van containing Philadelphia Eagles fans in December was today found guilty of first- and second-degree assault, although he was acquitted of an attempted murder charge.
